The Billionaire's secret Love by Manogyna Marthi (self help books to read .TXT) 📖

Taking out some wet wipes from the closet he starts cleaning my face gently holding my facet between his thumb and fingers. After he was completely satisfied with my appearance, he gives me a genial smile. I observe his identity though my racy eyes. His coat was gone and the first button of his white shirt was undone. His hair was disheveled and a slight stubble was noticeable giving him a rugged look. "Do you feel hungry? If you want I can cook something for you?" He asks me in his tender tone that surfaced only for me in this world. When I shake my head he gets up from the bed and meet my eyes. "I will come back in a couple of minutes. I have something to give you."

After two minutes he brings two boxes covered in silver paper and rests them in my lap. "This is the present I wanted to gift you on our marriage and this one is what you wished from me. I believe that both of them will be your favorites." Looking withdrawn he holds my gaze with gloom and speaks further. "Angelica, loving you had taught me many important things in life. The most precious gift a man can give to his wife is what she would cherish rather than what he wants her to treasure." He holds my cheek with one hand and kisses the other.

I open the first gift. Inside the velvet box was a beguiling ruby necklace with a searing path of diamonds. The jewel looked exquisitely irresistible with matching ear rings and a bracelet. "This is beautiful." I whisper meeting his eyes running a hand on the opulent piece. "Can I?" He asks pointing the necklace and my neck. I nod my head and he puts the necklace around me smiling in joy.

I start removing the fancy paper wrapped on the other gift. Inside was a wooden box. My curiosity increases as I try removing the lid. Inside were a small bundle of papers neatly rolled. Unrolling the first one my eyes lay stationed on the first line of letters that made me freeze right in my place.

"Divorce agreement"

"Angelica, I know you have boundless abomination for me but I thought marriage will put an end to all our disagreements and I was wrong. The words you spoke at the church brought an awakening in me and I understood no amount of my efforts could flower love for me in you". He kisses my head with a sad smile. "Just sign on those papers and you are free from this beast's clutches after the elapse of two years." Bringing me tight in his arms he lets his words painful. "I will not stop you if you want to go back to your home but if you stay I will be very happy treasuring every moment you spend with me." Saying his final words he hands me the pen and leaves the room without turning back.

I scribble my name on those papers and fall on the bed bawling into a heart wrecking scream.

We would be the first couple who married and signed a divorce on the same day.

😞 I feel very sorry for Augustus, poor man he is not bestowed with the best skills in expressing his love
